Scarcity of Fish.

For some weeks there has been great
scarcity of fish in our market-more so
than has ever been known before at this
season. Old and experienced fishermen
attribute it to the extreme hot weather
we have been having, and the fish during
very warm weather go into deep water
and there remain during the day, only
venturing nearer shore at night This
has been demonstrated by fishermen who
have experimental with their nets during
the night aud have been successful in
making good hauls of fish where none
could be caught during the day. The tay-
lor, trout, crocns and perch have been
extremely scarce with the seine haulers,
while anglers have been very successful
in deep water. The Severn river, in the
neighborhood of Round Bay, affords ex-
cellent fishing with hook and line just at
this time. and those who are fond of the
sport have been very successful.

LETTERS FROM HEAVEN"

A rather good book, with an unfortunate
title, is Letters from Heaven" published
by Funk & Wagnalls, of New York. The let
ters purport to have been written by the wife
of German pastor, from heaven, to her son
on earth. There are many fine passages in
the book, many noble thoughts, which any
one will be the better for reading and believ-
ing. But there are some serious defects in
it which are only aggravated when one thinks
of the title. For example, in describing the
hosts of the departed from earth as they
drew near to the gate of Paradise, the writer
says: "This procession of death presents a
strange spectacle. Some float on in their
night dresses, their faces drawn and pinched
by heightened suffering on sick bed, and
their souls bearing the traces of prolonged
conflict" "a young woman appears with
bloody hands and dripping hair. She MUIR
dered her child and drowned herself" sit
is night in her heart; she does not even look
toward the light Of ,Rezz6iee; she knows that
she is lost" Soon after the writer's arrival
in heaven, her husband, who had gone there
many years before her, led her to place
where she could look down upon her own
grave. "The grave seemed sacred to me-"
she writes, "because shall there one day
again put on, in its glorified form, that now
sleeping body" She is told that quite at
the end of Paradise is great gulf fixed,
which it is not permitted even the saved to
pass over. 1t is said that sometimes signs
and groans are heard resembling from its
other side" These fancies and illusions to
written in heaven, and greatly mar the effect
of it upon the mind Of the reader. But, as a
whole, it is evidently written in perfect and
unquestioning faith, with genuine sympathy,
and much of truthful and beautiful express
zion.

judgment of the world recorded by Matthew
(xxv. 31f). Those nations that Hospitality re-
ceived and kindly ministered to the necessi-
ties of the least of the apostles, the Kings
brethren, are represented as exalted to the
place of honor at the right hand of the King
in his glory. Individuals and nations that
receive and foster Christianity experience the
Divine favor and blessing. No service, how
ever small, and rendered to the smallest and
weakest of COPS children, or even creatures,
but will receive Divine recognition, and bless
the soul of the servant of GoD and CHRIST.
The small coin of little value, but all she had,
which JESUS observed the poor woman cast
ing into the treasury Of the Temple, was e.
teemed above all other gifts. The smallest
service faithfully rendered in training the
children in the knowledge of Christianity will
be richly rewarded.

CHRISTIAN PEACE,

JESUS, having informed his Apostles of the
dangers they might be called upon to encoun-
ter for his sake, declared that the ministry
of the Gospel is itself conhict,-that not
only themselves, but the truth which they de:
olared would be violently opposed by their
own countrymen and in their own homes.
The kingdom of heaven would indeed be es-
tablished by revolution and warfare, though
1t was kingdom of peace and its divinely
appointed ruler the Prince of Peace. "Do
not suppose" he says, "that l came to send
literally, throw or cast peace upon the
earth; came not to send peace, but sword"
The immediate effect, and it may be, pur-
pose, of JESUS mission to the world was war
fare; the ultimate purpose and intended re-
suit was abiding peace, the kind of peace
which the world can neither make nor de-
stroy. He came to revolutionize human 30
ciety in its religious thought, character and
conduct, and to make the heart of man at
peace with COP. This could only be done by
attacking error and sin and destroying them,
and establishing truth and righteousness.
Before there can be permanent peace there
must be purity. JESUS came to purify the
heart of the world with the consuming fire of
Divine Love. The "peace of GoD cannot be
hurled upon the earth like casting seed upon
the soil, but the seeds of Divine truth and
righteousness may spring up and grow in the
human soil, and by sharp conflict with the
weeds of error and sin, may conquer and es-
tablish a kingdom of eternal peace. The
conflict begun by JESUS and his apostles will
continue till Divine truth and life are trium
plant among men, and the kingdoms of the
world have become the kingdom of the
Prince Of Peace. The Church of CHRIST is
the army of the living GoD." Following
the Standard of the Crosse" the inspiring
symbol of self denying love and service, the
Christian soldiers are marching onward to
certain victory. As faithful Christians we
may be valiant soldiers of the cross, the
weapons of whose warfare are not carnal,
but spiritual and mighty through GoD to the
putting down of strongholds of ignorance
and sin.
JESUS apparently quotes from the prophet
Micah wi. 81, to describe the conflicts which
his coming into the world will occasion.

SAMANTHA AT SARATOGA"


SAMANTHA AT SARATOGA; or Flirtin' with FASH
ion. By Josiah Aliens Wife. Published
by Hubbard Brothers. Philadelphia.
This is the latest of Miss Holley's works,
and fully sustains her reputation as writer
of genuinely humorous books. Miss Holley
visited Saratoga during the height of the sea-
son, and she serves up the fashionable people
whom she met there, with all their vanities
and follies, in a way that leaves the reader at
something of loss, most of the time, wheth-
or to laugh or to lament. Interspersed thro'
the pages, as usual with this author, are many
beautiful fancies and sound truths which con-
stitute one of the great charms of the whole.
The play of humor is genuine, though there
are now and then broad lights which inter
fere with that delicate perspective necessary
to all true unaffected fun. The illustrations
are by Opper, the artist of 6 Puck." Sold
only by subscription.

The REWARD OF R1enrrousNEss.

Having described the antagonism which
the apostles would encounter in prosecuting
their work, and the sacrifices their Divine
calling imposed, together with the blessings
which their faithfulness would secure, JESUS
proceeds to speak of the kind hospitality and
hearty sympathy they would receive and
the divine rewards they should receive, who
aided and encouraged them in their work.
He had instructed them to depend for their
support upon the generous hospitality and
friendly aid of those to and for whom they
ministered 20, 1O). They who received, to
Hospitality entertain, the apostles for the
sake of the truth they declared and the good
they were doing, received also into the fell
lowship of their souls GoD AND CHRIST, whom
they represented, and received a Divine re-
ward like to that of the apostles themselv es
whom they received as prophets. that is. Di-
vinely inspired teachers of righteousness.
Those who for righteousness and truths sake
give aid and comfort to the messengers of
the Gospel and in any way heartily help for
ward the kingdom of GOD are partakers of
the genuine blessings of Christianity. The
smallest service to the cause and kingdom
of OHRIsT, represented by cup of cold wa
ter kindly given to little children, or to the
despised disciples described as little children
will not fail of its heavenly reward. The
same truth was declared by JESUS concern
ing the nations to which the apostles we're
sent in their final mission to go into all the
world and make disciples of all the nations,

his own experience, as it appears that his
friends, members probably of his own fami-

sought to restrain him Mark iii. 81, BY. The
language of Micah may have been under

JESUS may only have employed the language

An Economical New England Wife.

This story is told of the wife of an en-
inent benefactor of the town, whose resi-
dence was on the Hill" One day while
the lady was in the midst of prepare
tons for the midday meal-this was in
the olden time when people got up in the
morning and had dinner at the proper
time-a caller was announced. Hastily
leaving the kitchen where she was over
seeing operations, she entered the next
room where the visitor was. The door
between the two was open, and pretty
soon the lady broke of the conversation
and called to the help" in the kitchen:
Nancy, does the kettle boil?'
mo, ma am"
Then the conversation was renewed, to
be broken again in few minutes by the
inquiry:
Nancy, does the kettle boil?'
mo, ma am"
Then take the pine stick in the cor
ner and put it on the fire." This was
presumably done, for shortly after.
when ma am" repeated her question:
Nancy, does the kettle boil?'
Yes, ma am" was the answer.
Then take off the pine stick and put
II in the corner"
This shows a spirit Of saving hardly to
be surpassed. Boston Record.

ROOT WASHERS.

1t frequently happens that farmers are
obliged to harvest potatoes, turnips and
other roots when the ground is quite wet,
and, as consequence, so much earth
adheres to them as to render them unfit
for marketing or feeding to stock This
is especially the case where the soil is
clayey and sticks like plaster; it is then
almost impossible to remove it without
washing each root or tuber separately.
